Fall Trend: Quilting

Those of you with keen eyes may have noticed a new trend in shoes this fall: quilting!  These cushy diamond patterns are all over right now, from handbags and coats to (of course) shoes.  Want to hop on this trend?  Of course you do!  Here are five ways to get your quilt on this fall.

The Leila by Tory Burch is a simple black wedge at first glance, but that 3.75-inch wedge is covered in quilted leather!  The little strap over the peep toe is quilted too, and adorned with Tory’s signature logo.  The vamp is unquilted, for contrast.  Yours for $295 from Zappos Couture.

This sweet little flat is made of blush faux leather, tipped at its round toe with a sleek black cap and a grosgrain bow.  I also love the black trim around the foot—that makes this shoe for me.  Also available in white with black; your choice from Forever 21 for $18.

This beautiful boot is the Raina by G. C. Shoes.  The warm brown faux leather is quilted up the front, with stretchy panels in the back to keep you comfy.  I love the swirly cut up the side, though the inside has a zipper up the 17-inch shaft so it kind of ruins the line on that side.  But hey, no one sees that side!  They only see this gorgeous side.  Find them at Century 21 for $50.

The Ecentrc by Steve Madden is a slip-on flat in quilted blue (or wine, or black) faux leather.  The 1.5-inch tall white rubber sole makes this quite sporty, doesn’t it?  And the elastic at the front gives them a little flexibility.  Yours for $69 from Lord & Taylor.

The Lanikove by Bebe is just so sexy, isn’t it?  The sleek, quilted vamp ends in a peep toe over a 1.5-inch partially hidden platform, with a 5.5-inch stiletto anchoring the other end.  These are man-killers… up-to-the-minute trendy man-killers.  Fantastic!  Pick up a pair for $90 from Heels.com.

I really like this trend.  Hopefully you’ve seen something you like too!
